Re: Music

I thought it was interesting how someone brought in a quote earlier where
Salinger said he didn't think it was right to mention authors he liked who
were still alive. I would like to know what they thought of each other. I
wonder sometimes if I am oblivious to the same kind of talent today.

Anyways, why the subject is slightly off topic, I'd like to mention that As
I Lay Dying by Faulkner is one of my favorite books. There's one part in it
(Darl's last section) though that I have never understood, and it has
bothered me for almost three years now! It's the part that contains the
line "riding on the state's money which is incest." Baffled me, and I
cannot find an explanation in literary criticisms. Just hoping someone here
understands it...

Also, if you know how to put these emails in a daily digest format, please
let me know. I couldn't find instructions for it on the website.

Thanks,
Elizabeth
